Gov. Blagojevich will fight this heliocentrism thing

Gov. Blagojevich Reads Copernicus:
‘Will Fight This Heliocentrism Thing’

CHICAGO—It was announced today that the recently disgraced governor of Illinois Rod Blagojevich recently picked up a copy of On the Revolutions of Celestial Spheres, Nicolaus Copernicus’ watershed tome on the heliocentric nature of our solar system, and declared he “will fight this heliocentrism thing.”
Despite overwhelming evidence in support of Copernicus’ theory that the earth does in fact revolve around the sun, Blagojevich is insisting that it is the other way around.
“I’m not going to quit believing in an earth-centric universe because of modern science’s say-so.”
When asked by state Attorney General Lisa Madigan whether or not his conviction in the ancient view of the universe deemed him unfit to serve, the Illinois Supreme Court put aside the black tar heroin they were main-lining and said simply, “Nah.”
Among the allegations the governor is denying are the Earth’s tilt, the whole of celestial mechanics, and that stars are not angels doing the waltz in the night sky.
It remains to be seen whether he will step down in light of these accusations.
Unlike Galileo, Gov. Blagojevich had the courage to stand for his convictions.

Rome's Slogan:
“Judaism is a corrupted and dying Religion”

The story of temptation of Christ on an “exeedingly High Mountian” (Mt 4:8) is a typical example of smuggling the perennial Roman heliocentrism into Christian lore. In Plutarch’s De Iside and Osiride we find a story that Akhenaten in his childhood had a dream: a god resembling the sun god Ra took him by his hand and from an exceeding high mountain showed him all the kingdoms of the world and then said to him: All these things will I give to you, if you restore my rule. And Akhenaten, in a bloody revolution, did restore the rule of the sun god (heliocentrism). He built for his new god and for himself a new capital Akhetaton (presently known as El Amarna) and proclaimed the new divine rule Aton – a god of “social justice.” Jesus rejected the Devil's offer: “Go away devil, Thou must worship YHWH your God.”

In the Roman mythology we find also striking parallel to the story of temptation: Jupiter was led by Pan (the Devil) to the top of a mountain called the Pillar of Heaven whence he could see the countries of the world. Keep in mind that the Latin term orbis, actually means what Germans call Kreisscheibe i.e. a circle, a disk. (Urbi et Orbi). See Pan tempting Jupiter

Cicero writes: “ In the starry belt that the Greeks call the Zodiac, there is a certain force of such a nature that every part of that belt affects and changes the heavens in a different way, according to the stars that are in this or an adjoining locality at a given time.” These signs of the Zodiac, “Houses of the Sun”, were the 12 Constellations to which the most potent influence over destiny was ascribed. They are linked by artists not only with Time, Mother Earth, and the Seasons, but also with the traditional Olympian gods, by their appearance as a circular ring with Jupiter, Lord of All in their midst. On large bronze commemorative medallions of 2nd century emperors from Hadrian onwards, we see them as children disposed around Cicero globe beside Mother Earth, sometimes with the signs of the Zodiac displayed above; on the medallions of Commodus – under which such ideas especially flourished – they emerge from a circular frame held by Jupiter. In this sort of representation Jupiter is synonymous with Time, just as time is actually identified with a number of other gods such as the sun, and Serapis.

Jupiter was the god of Virgil's heliocentric system presented in his Georgica:

Quid faciat laetas segetes, quo sidere terram vertere- Maecenas, ulmisque vitis conveniat
(Virgil Georgica, 1-2;1-4)

Religion in the garb of Science
The Key Passage from Copernicus's Book (1,10)

“In the center of all rests the Sun. For who would place this lamp of a very beautiful temple in another or better place than this from which it can illuminate everything at the same time? As a matter of fact, not unhappily do some call it the lantern, others, the mind, and still others, the Leader of the World. Trismegistus calls it ‘visible God’; Sophocles’ Electra, ‘that which gazes upon all things.’ And so the sun, as if resting on a kingly throne, governs the family of stars (like Zeu pater) which wheel around.”

In Egypt, the sun was called pouro which signifies at once 'the fire' (Greek pyr) and 'the king'. And that explains why Copernicus's sun god is seated on the royal throne. The name of the sun god Baal means 'Lord' and 'King'. Now take a look at the Pope with the symbol of “Baal” at the forefront of his mitre, which also symbolizes the Dagon god that had a temple at Gaza (Judges 16:21-30) and Ashdod (1 Samuel 5:3-7; 1 Chronicles 10:10). Now you know who is behind all these flotillas trying to break the blockade of Gaza.

The Roman Jupiter was worshiped by the Slavs under the name Jessa and in Hungarian it became a term isten denoting God.

The Aryan Religion of Copernicus (Heliocentrism)

In the mythological lore, Ruler of the system is sun, the giver of life. Its influence is vitalising, hot, dry and constructive. It governs the heart, vitality, blood and brain. The right eye in a male and the left eye in a female. Sun causes physical disorders and those arising from cold. The Babylonian astrologers called the sun, the fiery heart of the world.

G.J. Von Leuchen aka Rheticus was the only pupil of N. Copernicus. After having spent two years with Copernicus in Frauenburg (Frombork) he went to Danzig where he published his Narratio Prima or the First Report (1540) which is still considered to be the best introduction to Copernicus' De revolutionibus orbium coelestium. In 1542 Rheticus traveled to Nuernberg to supervise the printing of the Copernicus' book by Johannes Petreius.

Buddhism and Christianity reconciled in the Cult of the Solar Heart

A short passage in his Narratio (p. 465,12; 462,22,35) is the best key unlocking the astrological taproot of De revolutionibus. In this passage he refers to the sun not only as God’s steward of nature and king of all distinguished with divine Majesty, but also explains that the sun, like the heart in a body, guides the stars: like a ruler who does not need to go to various towns in order to execute his official duty, so the heart does not have to go to head, to feet, or to other part of the body in order to sustain life. This was a perennial mantra of all heliocentric astrologers throughout the ages. Aztec priests were accused by the Spaniards of performing 50,000 heart sacrifices a year to to renew the vital strength of the sun believed to be the heart of the heaven. The Swastika means so many things: life force, rebirth, divine energy, the soul or spirit, "the inner fire" The Hindus have used Swastikas in the Chakras since ancient times. Buddhists are known for using the Swastika and they have called it the 'Buddha's heart'. In the New Testament the heart is called nous, a term denoting also the sun.

There is a sentence in the Hindu Oupnek-hat, which runs thus:

"To know fire, the sun, the moon, and lightning, is three-fourths of the science of God.”
Deva, God, is derived from the root div, to shine.

Let me show you, for instance, how Michel White, the former director of scientific studies and a science lecturer at D’Overbroeck’s College, Oxford sanitized this passage: “In the midst of all dwells the sun,” Copernicus declared proudly in those clear and precise opening pages of his masterpiece. “Sitting on the royal throne, he rules the family of planets which turn around him…We thus find in this arrangement an admirable harmony of the world.”

Early man, as we find in the Assyrian Triad, had as its center the "perfect circle," representing to them God who is the center of all things. Pharaoh Akhenaten replaced all the then current symbols of the sun with one: a circle, and called it one.

"There is more RELIGION in men's SCIENCE than there is SCIENCE in their RELIGION."
- Henry David Thoreau ("A Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers")

The scarab was linked to Khepri ("he who has come into being"), the god of the rising sun. The ancients believed that the dung beetle was only male in gender (like the phoenix, which became the symbol of Christian immortality), and reproduced by depositing semen into a dung ball. The supposed self-creation of the beetle resembles that of Khepri, who creates himself out of nothing (that explains why St. Th. Aquinas embraced the hypothesis of abiogenesis). Moreover, the dung ball rolled by a dung beetle resembles the sun. Plutarch wrote:
“The race of beetles has no female, but all the males eject their sperm into a round pellet of material which they roll up by pushing it from the opposite side, just as the sun seems to turn the heavens in the direction opposite to its own course, which is from west to east."

Philosophical Misogyny as the Proof of Heliocentrism

The same Aryan heliocentric logic was used by Copernicus as a religious(!) proof of his heliocentrism:

“we conceive immobility to be nobler and more divine than mutability and instability, which latter is therefore more appropriate to the earth than to universe. I add that it would seem quite absurd to attribute motion to that which contains and locates, rather than to that which is contained and located – namely the earth.”

In the "Serpent-Mantra,"* the Brahmana declares as follows: that this Mantra is that one which was seen by the Queen of the Serpents, Sarpa-rajni; because the earth (iyam) is the Queen of the Serpents, as she is the mother and queen of all that moves (sarpat). In the beginning she (the earth) was but one head (round), without hair (bald), i.e. without vegetation. She then perceived this Mantra which confers upon him who knows it, the power of assuming any form which he might desire. She "pronounced the Mantra," i.e., sacrificed to the gods; and, in consequence, immediately obtained a motley appearance; she became variegated, and able to produce any form she might like, changing one form into another. This Mantra begins with the words: "Ayam gauh pris'nir akramit" (x., 189). Cp. The Italian saying, La donna e mobile est. G. Bruno stressed that “Nature's imperfect is doubtful to no man. The reason is clear; she is only a woman.” (Darwin shared this view with G. Bruno). For scholastic philosophers woman was animal occasionatus...Mulieres non esse homines.
It might come as a stunning revelation to many that the word ‘ALLAH’ itself is Sanskrit. In Sanskrit
language Allah, Akka and Amba are synonyms. They signify a goddess or mother. The term ‘ALLAH’
forms part of Sanskrit chants invoking goddess Durga, also known as Bhavani, Chandi and
Mahishasurmardini. The Islamic word for God is., therefore, not an innovation but the ancient Sanskrit appellation retained and continued by Islam. Allah means mother or goddess and mother goddess.


Darwinism is Religion of (imperfect) Goddess Mutability

"These are the transformations declared, from the plant up to Brahma, which have to take place in this world" (Book I, sloka 8). The Nordic counterpart of the Hindu Tree of Life was called Yggdrasil.

In Darwin's book “cycling of the earth according to the fixed law of gravity” is followed up by evolution of endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful...” In the Aryan solar mythology the movements of the earth are the cause of evolutionary changes.

When discomfirming evidence cannot be ignored altogether, it is countered with ad hoc hypotheses. Douglas Futuyama's textbook tells college students that “Darwin more than anyone else extended to living things...the conclusion that mutability, not stasis, is the natural order.” So he did and in consequence paleontologists overlooked the prevalence in the fossil record of statis.. Stasis could not come to public notice until it was dressed up as evidence for “punctuated equilibrium,” which sounded at first like a new theory but turned out to be a minor variant of Darwinism. Darwinists can also explain away stasis as an effect of stabilizing selection, or developmental constraints, or mosaic evolution - and so, like mutability, it is just what a darwinist would expect. (Ph. Johnson, Darwin on Trial. 1993:154)

The British scholastic philosopher Bishop R. Grosseteste, of Oxford argued, “The earth is named Cybele, from the cube, that is from solidity; because the earth is the most greatly compressed of all bodies, that is, Cybele the mother of all gods; it is possible for the lumière of any sphere you please to be drawn forth from the earth into act and operation; and so whatever god you wish will be born of the earth as if of some mother.”

Spenser in his Fairy Queen prays to the God of the Hebrew Bible do defend him against, what he calls, goddess Mutability i.e. the Aryan sarpa rajni (the queen of all that moves)

Then gin I think on that which Nature said
Of that same time when no more change shall be.
But steadfast rest of all things, firmly stay’d
Upon the pillars of eternity.
That is contrare to mutability:
For all that moveth doth in change delight:
But henceforth all shall rest eternally
With him that is God of Sabaoth high.
O, that great Sabaoth God, grant me that Sabbath’s sight.

Irrationalism of Heliocentrism

Please, keep in mind, the daily moon rises and moon settings are explained adequately by the earth spinning on its axis, but the difference between the twenty four hours of solar day and night and 24 hrs and 51 minutes of the lunar cycle forces the astronomers to accept the retrograde (eastward) movement of the moon of 12 degrees. In plain words, in heliocentrism the moon moves simultaneously forward, to keep the pace with the speeding earth and backward to stay within the time limit of its apparent revolution about the earth. Pliny, the Elder in hisThe Natural History, (Volume 2. London: George Bell and Sons, 1890) mentions a mountain in ancient India called Nullo where the people had backwards turned feet and each foot had eight toes. This myth made the ancient heliocentric hypothesis credible. Similarly the myth of Yeti is supposed to make evolution credible. Tycho Brahe, who didn't believe in heliocentric Yetis, worked out a system in which the Moon and the Sun really turn about the earth and thus the heliocentric jugglery of the moon is averted.

J. Kepler's Universe where the Clockwork Oranges are to come by

Kepler asserts these Wonders may be done
By the Magnetic Vertue of the Sun,
Which he, to gain his End, thinks fit to place
Full in the Center of that mighty Space,
Which does the Spheres, where Planets roll, include,
And leaves him with Attractive Force endu'd.
The Sun, thus seated, by Mechanic Laws,
The Earth, and every distant Planet draws;
By which Attraction all the Planets found
Within his reach, are turn'd in Ether round.
— Richard Blackmore
Creation: A Philosopical Poem in Seven Books (1712), book 2, l. 430-53, p.78-9. See Kepler's heliocentric scheme inspired by Platonic Five Solids, a concept of totally materialistic universe.
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/19/Kepler-solar-system-1.png

And yet he wrote (in a letter to Herwart): ‘My aim is to show that the heavenly machine is not a kind of divine, live being, but a kind of clockwork (and he who believes that a clock has a soul, attributes the maker's glory to the work), in so far as nearly all the manifold motions are caused by a most simple, magnetic, and material force, just as all motions of the clock are caused by a simple weight.’
How could there be a seventh planet, when Euclid proved that there are only five Platonic solids!

The Heliocentric Hoax
by emptypockets
So-called "scientists" who propound the hoax of heliocentrism have been at each other's throats this week as their so-called "theory" falls apart. Heliocentrism is the idea that Earth and all other planets were formed at some point in history and circle around the Sun. How shaky is this "solar system" theory? Well, the experts don't even know how many planets there are:
In the hope of ending years of wrangling, a committee of astronomers and historians has proposed a new definition of the word “planet” that would expand at a stroke the family of planets from 9 to 12 and leave textbooks and charts in thousands of classrooms out of date.
But astronomers immediately began to wrangle about it.
“It’s a mess,” said Michael E. Brown of the California Institute of Technology.
[...]
So it was no surprise that as word of the decision leaked out yesterday, reaction from astronomers suggested that the argument was far from over.
“This will be the talk of the town in Prague,” said Alan P. Boss, a planetary theorist at the Carnegie Institution of Washington, who said the new definition, with four paragraphs and four footnotes, read as if it had been written by lawyers, not scientists. “I don’t think this is the one were looking for.”
(Emphasis mine.) Even the so-called "scientists" admit their own theories are contradictory nonsense. First, their theories change from day to day -- in fact, the idea of a sun-centered solar system didn't even arise until the year 1540. Second, they can't even agree on the details of their own theory -- some say there are 8 planets, some 12, some say as many as 53! Third, their theories are formed by committee, not derived (as they would have you believe) from some absolute external truth.
Compare that with the Bible, which tells us that Earth was created on the first day, and the Sun wascreated on the fourth day. (What did Earth circle around the first three days, Professor Smartypants?) The Bible is constant and unchanging, it is a single source of truth, and it was given to us by God not by some committee vote. Here's an experiment for you four-eyes: get your nose out of the telescope and look up in the sky. Then tell me the Sun doesn't go around the Earth.
We've already been through all this once with the "theory" of evolution. That so-called "fact" is always being revised, re-written, re-thought -- some idea of truth! Every day someone discovers some new observation that expands or refines the idea of evolution. How many times do they have to re-write it before they realize they are just wrong? No wonder fewer Americans believe in evolution than people in any of 31 other developed countries do. It's just good sense.
Hopefully, at last, we can start writing the textbook stickers that say, "Heliocentrism is a theory not a fact."
http://www.cynical-c.com/2007/05/20/heliocentrism-is-an-atheist-doctrine/

Blogs 4 Brownback is another site which I have no idea whether it’s satire or just batshit insanity.
It seems clear that it may occasionally be convenient to assume that the calculations of Copernicus and Kepler were mathematically sound. However, for both moral and theological reasons, we should always bear in mind that the Earth does not move. If it moved, we would feel it moving. That’s called empiricism, the experience of the senses. Don’t take my word for it, or the evidence of your own senses, Copernicans. There’s also the Word of the Lord:
“He has fixed the earth firm, immovable.” (1 Chronicles 16:30)
“Thou hast fixed the earth immovable and firm …” (Psalm 93:1)

John Paul II's Apostasy

Robert Sungenis holds to the Geocentric cosmological view of the universe in accordance with the literal, infallible, and inspired Word of God which, according to Providentissimus Deus by Pope Leo XIII, is inerrant in all matters.

Evolution and Heliocentrism are neither taught in Scripture, nor are taught by the Fathers and Medieval theologians of the Catholic Church, nor are there any official teachings from the Catholic Church endorsing either of the two teachings. Furthermore, the modern scientific evidence does not in the least support Evolution, and in fact denies it completely, while the scientific evidence for Heliocentrism is at best a draw when compared to Geocentric models, and at worst a distortion of both science and Scripture.
The Kolbe Center
This modernist attitude is refuted by the progressive and degenerative moral effect produced by rejection of, first, geocentrism in the 17th century, then special creation in the 19th century, and now the very existence of human life in the womb in the 20th.
[Maximilian Kolbe was a priest had pioneered religious use of mass media before World War II, and who voluntarily took the place of a condemned prisoner at Auschwitz. He was later canonized for his heroism. To have his name associated with something like this is truly revolting, indeed, as sacrilegious as any of the evils this group attacks. Also, sorry, but I don't think abolishing slavery, granting rights to women, establishing due process, and so on, count as "degenerative."]

Ecumenism in Science

The Dalai Lama's Institute of Buddhist Dialectics
http://www.lizaphoenix.com/encyclopedia/images/abarimon.jpg

The hypothesis of evolution belongs to philosophical category called Dialectical Materialism which proclaims that matter is self-moving (pantarei) and self-organizing (by mutations caused by internal contradictions, because contradiction is an essential feature of all being). In Lucretius' De Rerum natura mutations were caused by swerving of atoms i.e. by motion (self-motion). In colloquial language, while you might think that it is your push that moves a pin ball, actually, the ball moves itself. And that explains K. Marx's enthusiasm for Darwin's book. “Self-movement of everything existing; it alone furnishes the key to the 'leaps' (mutations), to the 'break in continuity' (punctuated equilibrium), to the transformation in the opposite, to the destruction of the old (unfit) and the emergence of the new (fit).” (Lenin, 1961). The Buddhist missionary in Russia, Dorijev along with many famous Russian orientalists, was convinced that Communism and Buddhism were compatible. He publicly proclaimed that the teaching of Shakyamuni was an “atheistic religion.”, which is correct, and that it would be wrong to describe it as “unscientific.

Karl Marx described the Origin of Species as “one long argument”, and the point of argument was that the common ancestry thesis was so logically appealing that rigorous empirical testing was not required. Accordingly, the scientists, like pope John Paul II, did accept the theory before it was rigorously tested, and thereafter used all their authority to convince the public that naturalistic processes are sufficient to produce a human from a bacterium, and a bacterium from a mix of chemicals. And thus the all-important central concept had become a dogma. Prominent Darwinists such as Harvard's Richard Lewontin and Stephen jay Gould proudly claimed Marxist inspiration for their biological theories.

And thus “Evolution” in Darwinist usage implies a completely naturalistic metaphysical system, in which matter (aka Blind Watchmaker) evolved to its present state of organized complexity without any participation by a Creator. Soviet biologist A.I. Oparin argued, Because of the problems in relying simply on chance for the origin of life, many scientists have rejected this mechanistic viewpoint in favor of a materialistic viewpoint. The mechanistic outlook relies on pure chance to explain the origin of life, while the materialistic position believes that evolution is inevitable whenever the conditions are right. This is because the materialist believes there are certain laws, natural laws or properties associated with matter which overcome the problems inherent with chance. The Aryan evolutionary dogma proclaimed, The first germ of life was developed by water and heat (Manu, book I, sloka 8).
S.J. Gould never passes up an opportunity to convey the impression that science has discovered that the world is governed by chance.

John Paul II was a hidden Marxist. Everyone remembers the demise of Cardinal Alfredo Ottaviani who, in a post-conciliar article, addressed a number of ecclesiastics as "little Communists of the sacristy." While Christ and his faithful suffered in lunatic asylums, prisons, and labor camps in the East, atheism was alive and well in the Vatican. If men of the Church, such as Montini and Casaroli, hadn't fueled their love affair with the countries behind the Iron Curtain, how much earlier would the Berlin Wall have fallen?

Well, the National Academy of Sciences told the Supreme Court that the most basic characteristic of science is “reliance upon naturalistic (i.e. materialistic) explanations,” as opposed to “supernatural means inaccessible to human understanding.”. In the latter, unacceptable category contemporary scientists place not only God, but also any non-material vital force that supposedly drives evolution in the direction of greater complexity, consciousness, or whatever.

Consider the following passage from Pope Pius XI's Encyclical Divini Redemptoris:

The doctrine of modern Communism, which is often concealed under the most seductive trappings, is in substance based on the principles of dialectical and historical materialism previously advocated by Marx, of which the theoricians of bolshevism claim to possess the only genuine interpretation. According to this doctrine there is in the world only one reality, matter, the blind forces of which evolve into plant, animal and man. Even human society is nothing but a phenomenon and form of matter, evolving in the same way. By a law of inexorable necessity and through a perpetual conflict of forces (i.e. dialectical contradictions), matter moves towards the final synthesis of a classless society.(thanks to the dialectical law of the transformation in the opposite. In such a doctrine, as is evident, there is no room for the idea of God; there is no difference between matter and spirit, between soul and body; there is neither survival of the soul after death nor any hope in a future life. Insisting on the dialectical aspect of their materialism, the Communists claim that the conflict which carries the world towards its final synthesis can be accelerated by man. One could say, Darwin put the British aristocratic caste on the chopping block of dialectical materialism. Is not Kate Middleton a coal miner's daughter? The Blue Blood of the favoured races doesn't count anymore! Sexual selection to Darwin was almost as important as natural selection (Darwin's second classic, The Descent of Man is mainly a treatise on sexual selection). Darwin himself married his blue blood cousin to preserve this privileged feature in his progeny.
Darwin understood that the distinctive feature of his theory was its uncompromising philosophical materialism, which made it truly scientific in the sense that it did not invoke any mystical or supernatural forces that are inaccessible to scientific investigation. To achene a fully materialistic theory Darwin had to explain very complex characteristic or major transformation as the cumulative product of a great many tiny steps. The Aryan evolutionary dogma proclaimed: "Each being acquires the qualities of the one which immediately precedes it, in such a manner that the farther a being gets away from the primal atom of its series, the more he is possessed of qualities and perfections" (Book I, sloka 20). In Darwin's own words:

Natural selection can act only by the preservation and accumulation of infinitesimaly small inherited modifications, each profitable to the preserved being; and as modern geology has almost banished such views as the excavation of a great valley by a single diluvial wave, so will natural selection, if it be a true principle, banish the belief of the continued creation of new organic beings, or of any great and suden modification in their structure.

Materialist scientists are full of scorn for creationists who invoke an invisible creator who employed supernatural powers that cannot be observed operating in our own times.


According to the Humanist Manifesto of 1933

According to the Book of Genesis, “God created man in his own image.” According to Aristotle, “men create the gods after their own image.” According to Darwin, man evolved in the image of Ape. The apes, Hitler claimed, trampled every outsider (he meant a Jew) to death, as an enemy of the community, “and what was Right for apes must be even more applicable to men.” (Tischgespraeche, p. 346) KJV, inspired by the crusaders' spirit, smuggled into Gen 1:20 the mythological evolutionism and in Ex 15:14 it introduced the name Palestina for the territories inhabited by the Greek “crusaders” Philistines whose god Dagon half-fish, half-man symbolized the evolution known from the Babylonian mythology. Actually the name Palestina in the form Syro-Palestina was introduced by the Romans after the final destruction of the Judean state, in 2nd Century C.E. In the opinion of the British Darwinist elites and their American admirers such as for example, Clare Booth Luce, the lower classes and the Jews were considered the mongrel i.e. weak, subhuman races (“unfit”) of the world, and as such, should be exterminated, which, by the way became the core teaching of the present New Agers. Incidentally, Darwin regarded women as inferior, asserting that the traditional feminine attributes – intuition, imagination – were 'characteristic of lower races, and therefore of a past and lower civilization.' Obviously, Clare Booth Luce did not bother to read Darwin's books; she just proclaimed slogans of her caste. In March 2009 former U.S. Ambassador to the NN John Bolton said that President Obama in effect has placed Israel “on the chopping block.”

Fear of G-d is the Beginning of Wisdom

David Wilder, Spokesman for the Hevron Jewish Community had this to say after the announcement of the Hamas-Fatah agreement: http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/143782

Just as G-d hardened Pharaoh's heart, so too, today, He is throwing dust into the eyes of our enemies, blinding them, dulling their senses, and leading them down a dead-end road - leading, not to Israel's destruction, rather to their own obliteration. This does not mean, under any circumstances, that we will have an easy time of it. Far from it. Dead end roads aren't necessarily short, and they can be quite bumpy. But the chances of another Arab state on our eastern border, created with Israel's blessings, have hit the lowest level they've been at in years. It won't be easy, but we will prevent creation of a Palestinian state. G-d is watching over us. G-d is protecting us, even from ourselves. Thank G-d!

Science Minister Weighs in On Evolution Debate
Adar 18, 5770, 04 March 10 11:04, by Gil Ronen

(Israelnationalnews.com) Minister of Science and Technology Prof. Daniel Hershkowitz (Jewish Home) defended the Chief Scientist of the Education Ministry, Dr. Gabi Avital, in a weekend interview. Avital has come under fire for saying schoolchildren should be exposed to opinions that criticize Charles Darwin's theory of evolution, and should be aware of the opposition to current theories regarding global warming.

Minister Hershkowitz defended Dr. Avital and said that there was indeed criticism of certain aspects of the theory of evolution and that there was no reason to fire the Chief Scientist. 

Prof. Hershkowitz said that as a rabbi and scientist, he saw no contradiction between religious faith and acceptance of the basic tenets of Darwinian evolution. He quoted from the teachings of Rabbi Gedalya Nadel of Sforno, who lived three centuries before Darwin and who contended that the creation of Man in G-d's image was the final stage of a long process that began with an unintelligent creature “from the category of animals,” that developed over time into mankind.

Darwin's proofs appear convincing, Min. Hershkowitz said, but his theory “still contains sizable parts that constitute speculation that could theoretically eventually turn out to be wrong. Therefore there is no need to treat it as an absolute truth that cannot be doubted.”
One of the problems with the theory of evolution is that no one has seen mutations occur and change a living species in the period of recorded history. If mutations, which in Darwinian theory explain the evolution of different species, were the basis of that evolution in primeval times, they should be continuing to occur.
Dr. Avital had been quoted as saying: “If the educational texts write explicitly that Man is descended from apes – I will want students exposed to other opinions and to deal with them. There are many people who think the Theory of Evolution is wrong.” - Well, Rabbi Gedalya Nadel of Sforno was a Jewish Thomas Aquinas who also embraced evolutionism of the Hindu “soaring speculator” Manu: "Each being acquires the qualities of the one which immediately precedes it, in such a manner that the farther a being gets away from the primal atom of its series, the more he is possessed of qualities and perfections" (Book I, sloka 20).

Russian president abolishes federal agencies for science and education
06/03/201018:03 RIA novosti
Russian President Dmitry Medvedev signed a decree abolishing the federal agencies for science and education and giving their functions to the Ministry of Education and Science, the Kremlin press service said on Saturday.
It was the Ministry of Education and Science which introduced to public schools in Russia the anti-Drawinist book, In the Minds of Men. Darwin and the New World Order, by Ian T. Tylor. Incidentally, the book was published in 1984 when John Paul II started promoting the idea of an “independent” Palestinian state.

Pope: Humanity Isn't Random Product of Evolution
Saturday, April 23, 2011 07:05 PM

Benedict emphasized the Biblical account of creation in his Easter Vigil homily, saying it was wrong to think at some point "in some tiny corner of the cosmos there evolved randomly some species of living being capable of reasoning and of trying to find rationality within creation, or to bring rationality into it."
He said: "If man were merely a random product of evolution in some place on the margins of the universe, then his life would make no sense or might even be a chance of nature." He said "creative, divine reason" was present during the origin of life. Benedict XVI rejected Pius XII's an d John Paul II's evolutionary emergence of human body.

God's “Pillars” of The Earth

Andrew Dickson White in his History of the Warfare of Science with Theology in Christendom wrote: “Still, at various times and places, germs implanted by Greek and Roman thought were warmed into life. The Arabian schools seem to have been less fettered by the letter of the Koran than the contemporary Christian scholars by the letter of the Bible; and to Avicenna belongs the credit of first announcing substantially the modern geological theory of changes in the earth's surface.” Mr. White got it totally wrong.

According to his false theory Avicenna accounted for the fossils by suggesting a “stone-making force ( “You too have numen,” says Ovid to a boundary stone.” (Cp. The cult of the Kaba!).” His belief was inspired by the myth of the birth of the Persian god Mithra who was forced out of a rock (petra genetrix, or, Hesiod's materia matrix) as if by some hidden magic power. His birth inspired Darwin with the idea that evolution is controlled by a “force” (numen or Kant's thing-in-itself) that acts on plants and animals slowly, over the course of many generations, to produce changes in their forms. “In Buddhism, to realize the absence of a permanent, autonomous ego enables hitherto unknown vistas in one's life to open up. The dark opaque perspective of self-centeredness gives way to a more luminous and sensitized awareness of the shifting, contingent processes of the body and mind.” (S. Batchelor, Confession of a Buddhist Atheist. 2010:35)

Long before Avicenna, following the Mihraic birth myth, St. Augustine, a former Manichee interpreted Genesis to mean that God created animals and plants only virtually, in the sense that the earth was given the power to bring forth living things in time. In such an exegesis the earth regained its mythological divine power. The New Age belief that the earth is, actually, ancient goddess Gaia is the modern variant of the ancient myth. In Darwin's Myth it was Thales's water (“Little, Warm Pond”) which brought forth living things. The Buddhists posit an impermanent, non-physical mental process (LOGOS, to account for what is reborn.

Darwin's goddess Mutability vs. the God who creates and maintains life on Earth

In the Darwinian scheme nature, so far as we can discern, without passion and without intention, forms, transforms, and retransforms forever. She neither weeps nor rejoices. She produces man without purpose, and obliterates him without regret. She knows no distinction between the beneficial and the hurtful.
In the evolutionary pattern of thought there is no longer either need or room for the supernatural. The earth was not created, it evolved (Hesiod: from chaos). So did all the animals and plants that inhabit it, including our human selves, mind and soul as well as brain and body. So did religion. (Julian Huxley)

When discomfirming evidence cannot be ignored altogether, it is countered with ad hoc hypotheses. Douglas Futuyama's textbook tells college students that “Darwin more than anyone else extended to living things...the conclusion that mutability, not stasis, is the natural order.” So he did and in consequence paleontologists overlooked the prevalence in the fossil record of statis.. Stasis could not come to public notice until it was dressed up as evidence for “punctuated equilibrium,” which sounded at first like a new theory but turned out to be a minor variant of Darwinism. Darwinists can also explain away stasis as an effect of stabilizing selection, or developmental constraints, or mosaic evolution - and so, like mutability, it is just what a darwinist would expect. (Ph. Johnson, Darwin on Trial. 1993:154)

In the Biblical scheme, while the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease. (Gen. 8:22)

God's blessing: “Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth (Gen. 1:28) is fully apprehended only when it is placed in the world created out of nothing. In contradistinction, the ancient cosmogonies tell about the creation of the world out of pre-existing materials, and the origin of the world is often intertwined with the origin of gods. In the Egyptian myth the goddes Neith emerges spontaneously out of the primordial ocean, like the Greek Venus ot, the Syrian Atargatis.. For the Mesopotamian his creator God was only the demiurge who built the world we live in out of matter and according to Natural Laws that are not of his creating. In this world there is something God did not create. In the world created out of matter the fear of living in overcrowded and poor living conditions is very real. As a way of disposing of “the human pollution of the world” atheistic science proposed “zero population growth.” The use of death became one way to control population. They postulate the exterimination of 95% of the world population, yet they reproach the God of the Bible when an earthquake or Tsunami happens.

There is no such fear in the world created by God out of nothing, because: “As the hosts of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured, so I will multiply the seed of David, my servant.” (Jer 33:22). Seeing people multiplying the Biblical author relieves them from fear with the words: “One generation passeth away, and another generation cometh; and the earth abideth for ever (Ecc 1:4). When Abraham heard God's promise that his seed shall be as countless as the stars (Gen 15:5) he knew nothing about the treasures which God was preparing inside the earth for the generations to come and which made the industrial revolution possible. And hosts of the Lord are still coming preparing new treasures for Abraham's countless seed.

Men did walk and work amid the primeval forests that we dig up as coal.

Acceptance of the Biblical Astronomy means acceptance of God’s ordinances, which are not the same as the Laws of Nature, i.e. the “laws’ of a brain dead god. Consider: “I will open rivers in high places and fountains in the midst of the valleys; I will make the wilderness a pool of water and the dry land springs of water. I will plant in the wilderness the cedar, the shittah tree, the myrtle and the oil tree. I will set in the desert the fir tree, and the pine, and the box tree together.” – Isa 41:18-19. Don’t worry that the oil resources will dry up some day. God knows that too. If I were a heliocentrist I would be sacred to death thinking that water resources will soon be exhausted, because in the world of Copernicus water is not replenished by the Creator and Provider for the ever growing populations of living creatures.

Regarding life as an outcome of accidental chemical processes, Science does not search into the vast process of Ceaseless Creation which is being renewed time and again in the successive periods of the world history. Keeping life prosperous and growing is not an easy task. Let's descend to the bottom of this problem.

The language of the Bible does not sound like the jargon of the modern Science, non the less the thoughts of many Biblical verses match exactly conclusions of the present-day geologists.

For instance, the verse: “And God said: 'Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear'” (Gen. 1:9) express the same phenomenon which the modern geologists discovered when they saw that rocks formed blow the seas are now high in the mountains and that mountain chains have been raised repeatedly at different places and then worn away.

According to one hypothesis the Himalayas were formed as a result of continental collision when India broke off Gondwanaland and slammed into Asia. Floating continent? But we also can imagine the rise of India the same way as the rise of the Hawaiian Islands. Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa are the two principal volcanoes that created the island of Hawaii. Mauna Kea is the tallest mountain in the world, for it rises some 32,000 feet above the ocean floor, making it several hundred feet taller than Mt. Everest. The island of Hawaii is the youngest and most volcanically active and lies to the southeast. The rest of the islands are in line to the northwest, with each being elder than the one to its southeast. It appears that the islands were produced assembly line fashion, with each one moving away in succession from its point of origin as though on a conveyor belt.

The peak of Mauna Kea is 13,803 feet (4,207 m) above mean sea level but 33,476 feet (10,203 m) above its base on the floor of the Pacific Ocean. It is the world's tallest mountain by this measure, taller than Mount Everest, which is the highest mountain above sea level.
“Then the channels of the sea were seen, the foundations of the world were laid bare, at Thy rebuke, O Lord, at the blast of the breath of thy nostrils.” (2 Sam 22:16)
Where were thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? Tell me, if you have understanding? Who determined its measurements – surely you know! Or who stretched the line upon it? Or what were its bases, or who laid its cornerstone? (Book of Job). God is my refuge and my strength... Therefore will we not fear, though the earth do change, and though the mountains be moved into the heart of the seas” (Ps 46:2-3)
The summit plateau of Mauna Kea is entirely above timberline, with a landscape of mostly lava rock with patches of alpine tundra. Snowfall often occurs at elevations above 11,000 feet (3,400 m) during the period from November through March. During particularly cold and wet winters, which are usually linked to La Niña, a snowpack several feet (1 m) deep may remain in the summit region above 13,000 feet (4,000 m) for weeks or months. This permits skiing and other snowplay activities on the slopes of the cinder cones.
Between 5,200 and 8,000 feet (1,600 and 2,400 m) there is a band of ranch land which was formerly koa-mamane forest but has been almost entirely converted to pasture. This area has suffered from heavy infestations of gorse, an invasive species in Hawaii. Most of the north and west slopes are also pasture. The palila, an endangered finch-like honeycreeper, feeds almost exclusively on mamane seeds and lives in mamane-naio forest on the west slope. Large numbers of feral sheep inhabit the upper elevations, and have had a severe impact on the native vegetation.

A “Copernicus” of the Hawaiian mythology stopped the sun in its course with a rope spliced from the pubic hair of his sister.
Similarly, the Deccan Plateau formed from lava outflows. Basalt up to 7,000 feet (2100 m) thick covers 250,000 square miles (650,000 sq. km) in India's Deccan Plateau. Volcanic plugs like these of Mauna Kea or Mt. Everest are embedded in the basalt (like teeth are embedded in jaws); they are the “pillars” of the world upon which the Lord “hath set the world” (1 Sam 2:8). According to modern Science more than 80% of the earth's surface above and below sea level is of volcanic origin. And these volcanoes work untiringly, for generations to come.
Who shakes the earth from its place and its pillars tremble. (Job 38:4-6)

Upon similar “pillars” the Bolivian lake Titicaca rests. Though now more than two miles above sea level, the area around the lake is littered with millions upon millions of fossilized sea shells. This suggests that at some stage the whole of the Altiplano was forced upwards from the sea-bed, perhaps as part of the general terrestrial rising that formed South America as a whole. We observe at present similar rising of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge.

The youngest rocks of the oceans were found in such places as the mid-Atlantic Ridge, which runs like a seam through Iceland and reaches to the South Pole. Iceland is one of the most thermally active countries in the world and is blessed with an abundant geothermal energy source for generating electricity and heating buildings. Under Iceland the upwelling is so intense that the plateau rises above the sea level. On other parts of the mid ocean ridge, volcanic activity is quite prevalent and there are as many as 20 major eruptions a year. Like Iceland, the Azores, and the islands of St. Paul, Ascension, Tristan da Cunha, Gough, and Bouvet are surface expressions of the Mid-Atlantic volcanic eruptions. Similarly, the other continents had been built.

Because the crust under the Pacific Ocean is more volcanically active, it has a higher density of seamounts than the Atlantic or Indian Ocean. The average density of Pacific seamounts is between five and ten volcanoes per 5,000 square miles of ocean floor, a considerably greater occurrence of volcanoes than there is on the continents. Oceania is a collective name for the groups of islands in the Pacific Ocean of volcanic or coral formation, lying between the southeastern shores of Asia and the western shores of the American continent. Coral reefs abound throughout the South Pacific, in the East Indies and the Indian Ocean to Ceylon, and around Madagascar. They also form along the tropical eastern coast of Brazil, and at Bermuda. Since these sea gardens grow, this means that the coral islands of Oceania are being enlarged. Steadily enlarged for future generations of people and other living creatures.

When soil lodges on the coral, vegetation begins to grow Among the builders of the world, coral rivals even man's ability to alter the surface of the earth. Hundreds of atols consist of reefs several thousand yards across, many of which are formed on ancient volcanic cones that have subsided below the sea, with the rate of coral grow surpassing the rate of subsistence. Fringing reeds grow in shallow water; the best example is the Great Barrier Reef off the northeastern coast of Australia. It forms an underwater embankment more than 1200 miles long, 90 miles wide and 400 feet high. Coral reef environments have among the highest rates of photosynthesis, nitrogen fixation, and limestone deposition of any environment. Coral reefs are centers of high biological productivity and their fishes are a major source of food in tropical areas.

Studies indicate that the sea floor is spreading in the Red Sea through and that the Arabian Peninsula is slowly, drifting away from Africa. The Red Sea may thus be an Ocean in embryo. “One generation passeth away, and another generation cometh; and the earth abideth for ever.”

African Desert Rift Confirmed as New Ocean in the Making

Geologists Show that Seafloor Dynamics Are at Work in Splitting African Continent
In 2005, a gigantic, 35-mile-long rift broke open the desert ground in Ethiopia. At the time, some geologists believed the rift was the beginning of a new ocean as two parts of the African continent pulled apart, but the claim was controversial.
Now, scientists from several countries have confirmed that the volcanic processes at work beneath the Ethiopian rift are nearly identical to those at the bottom of the world's oceans, and the rift is indeed likely the beginning of a new sea.
The new study, published in the latest issue of Geophysical Research Letters, suggests that the highly active volcanic boundaries along the edges of tectonic ocean plates may suddenly break apart in large sections, instead of little by little as has been predominantly believed. In addition, such sudden large-scale events on land pose a much more serious hazard to populations living near the rift than would several smaller events, says Cindy Ebinger, professor of earth and environmental sciences at the University of Rochester and co-author of the study.
"This work is a breakthrough in our understanding of continental rifting leading to the creation of new ocean basins," says Ken Macdonald, professor emeritus in the Department of Earth Science at the University of California, Santa Barbara, and who is not affiliated with the research. "For the first time they demonstrate that activity on one rift segment can trigger a major episode of magma injection and associated deformation on a neighboring segment. Careful study of the 2005 mega-dike intrusion and its aftermath will continue to provide extraordinary opportunities for learning about continental rifts and mid-ocean ridges."

Reef Renewal

Marine biology experts from Ben Gurion University of the Negev recently created an artificial coral reef in the Red Sea of the coast of Eilat. Along with volunteer divers, the researchers planted coral previously grown in a nursery onto metal and concrete templates sunk earlier this year.

The coastlines are changing incessantly the same way as the surface of the earth is changing. Prophet Isaiah said:

“I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight, and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together” (40:4)

Similarly, in the opinion of present-day geologists, if there is one thing that can be said about the earth with complete certainty, it is that it is continuously changing. The earth's surface rocks are constantly being worn away to form sediments that are redistributed over the surface. This process of erosion, transportation, and deposition has taken place since the surface was first formed. Rocks and soil are degraded, or eroded by atmospheric weathering, running water, glaciers, winds, and waves, and by changes produced by plants and animals. As streams carve their channels, they remove earth material (Grand Canyon!) that will be later deposited as sediment. The sediments may accumulate to form a variety of land features, including sandbars, deltas and river floodplains. In the course of geological history, the sediments may eventually be converted into sedimentary rocks. These sediments had covered with thick layers organic sediments i.e. billions upon billions of little plants and animals that sank or were washed into the ancient seas. In time they formed an ooze hundreds of feet deep (like those in Everglades) which was subjected to tremendous pressures at the sea bottom. That's why petroleum is found only in beds of ancient seas, many of which are now thousands of feet below dry land.

Isn't it a miracle that the face on the moon stays the same? Always, forever! Why? Here is the answer: “And God said: 'Let there be lights in the spread of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years.'” These signs are for us who understand their meaning. How Great Thou Art.

Prof. Carl Becker in his book The Heavenly City of the 18th century Philosophers demonstrates that the period commonly described as The Age of Reason was, in fact, very far from that; that Newton, Voltaire, Hume, Diderot, and Locke were living in a medieval world inspired by the Arab philosophers such as: Al-Farabi, Avicenna, Averroes an others. There is no logical reason why the scientists of the 1980s should be any more infallible in their pontifical statements of scientific dogmas than their predecessors of the 1880s, or 1200s for that matter.
Renunciation of the traditional revelation was the very condition of being truly enlightened; for to be truly enlightened was to see the light in its fullness, and the light in its fullness revealed two very simple and obvious facts. One of these contained the sum of those negations which we understand so well – the fact that the supposed revelation of God’s purposes through Holy Writ was a fraud, or at best an illusion born of ignorance, perpetrated, or at least maintained, by the Jews in order to accentuate the fears of mankind, and so hold it in subjection. Like Walt and Mearsheimer proclaim in their, now world-famous, screed. Why do they care to write for “human pollution”?
Richard Dawkins, Darwin's latest bloody-fanged bulldog described the grandeur of evolutionist view of life as follows: “The universe we observe has precisely the properties we should expect if there is at bottom no design, no purpose, no evil and no good, nothing but pointless indifference.” This universe is no more than dead matter ruled by impersonal equations.
Lucifer, one of the protagonists of Taylor Caldwell's novel Dialogues with the Devil, in one of his letters describes a room in the afterlife reserved for scientists who have knowingly and willfully rejected God. It has no demons. No fires. No instruments of torture or discomfort of any kind. In fact, just the opposite. Every tool of scientific inquiry is immediately available. So is every reference book. So are unlimited data about anything which any scientist would ever hope to know. Only one thing is missing: PURPOSE. In rejecting God, they've rejected the Creator who gives context and meaning to all knowledge.
And keep in mind that, where Newton still said, from blind necessity no change could and thus no variety of the things develop, since this is possible from the divine ideas and the divine will alone, became with Darwin the opposite: The whole diversity of species has its origin in coincidence mutations and their chances of survival. After the thorough research of Stanley Jaki remains hardly a doubt that Darwin with his theory wanted to help the materialism scientifically to victory. Karl Marx and F. Engels welcomed, not coincidentally, Darwin's theory enthusiastically as scientific basis for their own theory. (From Card. Schoenborn's lecture in Castel Gandolfo, 1-3 September 2006)
The “Manna” for Mauna Kea's Wekiu Bug

http://home.honolulu.hawaii.edu/~pine/Phil100/wekiubug2.gif
http://kahea.org/issues/sacred-summits/aloha-mauna-kea/developedarea.jpg/image_preview

According to God’s ordinance and not according to a Law of Nature, or a chance “there went a wind and brought quails from the sea, and let them fall by the camp, as there it were a day’s journey on this side, and as it were a day’s journey on the other side round about the camp, and as it were two cubits high upon the face of the earth. And the people stood up all that day, and all that night, and all the next day, and they gathered the quails; he that gathered least gathered ten homers; and they spread them all abroad for themselves, round about the camp” (Nb 11:32) And this ordinance came when Moses wondered “whence I should have flesh to give all this people, to eat not one day, nor two days, nor five days, neither ten days, nor twenty days, but even a whole month.” There is no need of euthanasia in the Biblical world.
No struggle for survival was observed on Mauna Kea's slopes; God delivers all food they need; the wēkiu bug,feeds on insects blown to the summit by updrafts.
'Wekiu'" is the Hawaiian word for top or summit. This name was given to Mauna Kea's tallest cinder cone, which reaches 13,796 feet in elevation and is the highest in the Hawaiian archipelago. Life on the Mauna Kea summit must endure freezing temperatures, winter snow falls, and, occasionally, hurricane-force winds. The centers of the summit cones on Mauna Kea are permanently frozen to just a few feet below the surface. Only lichens and some mosses grow scattered on the tops of rocks. Until recently these cold stone fields were thought to be devoid of resident animal life. An unusual new bug was first discovered in 1980 by biologists searching for insects under stones on Pu`u Wekiu. Although known to scientists as Nysius wekiuicola this "seed bug" in the family Lygaeidae was given the common name "wekiu bug" to highlight the unusual location where these insects live. As their familiar name implies, most seed bugs feed on seeds by piercing their straw-like mouth parts into the inner seed tissue and sucking it out. However, since no native seed-bearing plants live in the summit area of Mauna Kea, it was clear to biologists that these insects must be tapping into a different food source than their close relatives. Entomologists studied the ecology of the wekiu bug to find out how it could survive in such an extreme and hostile environment. Unlike their seed-feeding relatives, the wekiu bugs consume other dead and dying insects that get carried upslope by winds and deposited at the summit. The bugs search under rocks and across ash flows for fresh, wind-blown carcasses. They then use their piercing mouth-parts to puncture the exoskeleton of their prey and suck out the juices inside. Wekiu bugs are nearly one quarter of an inch long with long, thin legs. Young bugs are dark brown with red abdomens, while the adult bugs are a more uniform dark brown to black color. Like all other true bugs, the young have only small developing wing pads. The adults, however, never develop full wings. Having extremely reduced wings may be an advantage to an insect that sneaks its way through rocks and ash. Besides, flying at the summit of Mauna Kea can send a bug on a long trip. The bugs share their summit home with other arthropods, including spiders and caterpillars. Each has found its own way of dealing with the extreme cold found at this elevation. Wolf spiders hunker down under rocks that have been absorbing the sun's heat during the day. Moth caterpillars, like many other types of insects, have a sort of antifreeze in their bodies that prevents ice crystals from forming in their cells. The wekiu bug also can endure subfreezing temperatures with a natural antifreeze in its blood but also has a dark body to absorb warmth from the sun and simultaneously protect it from ultraviolet radiation (there are no Darwinian racists among the bugs). Until recently the wekiu bug was known only from the three cones at the summit of Mauna Kea. Construction of observatories at the summit of Mauna Kea raised concerns that the wekiu bug may be in jeopardy of losing its only known habitat. So the search began to find more bugs on Mauna Kea and the slopes of Mauna Loa. Individuals have now been observed on cinder cones nearly three miles from the Mauna Kea summit, while a previously unknown species was discovered on Mauna Loa. The Mauna Loa bug, Nysius aa, was first captured in 1985 but not described as a different species until 1998. The life style of this bug appears to be very similar to that of its sister species, the wekiu bug, but subtle differences in its appearance make it clear that this is not the same species. Similar species have not been observed from Hualalai or Haleakala, but maybe they just haven't been found yet." The genus Nysius in the insect family Lygaeidae, contains approximately 106 species throughout the world.
Like other seed bugs, there are some species in the genus that have proven to be crop pests of wheat and other grains (including N. huttoni), as well as many vegetables. There appears to be a unique Hawaiian radiation of the genus containing almost a quarter of the world's species (26), as well as the most diverse character set seen in the genus. In addition, two closely related species found on Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea on the island of Hawai'i, are different from the rest of Nysius by exhibiting reduced nonfunctional wings, and feed on dead and dying insects (N. wekiuicola, N. aa. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3380/3639729803_19fc9d3d8d.jpg http://www.ctahr.hawaii.edu/rubinoffd/rubinoff_lab/projects/wekiu_bug/Nysius%20species.jpg
